Figure 9.1 Feedback amplifier. Note that the signals are denoted as xi, xf, xo, and so on.
The signals can be either currents or voltages.
xi = xs − β xo
Af – closed-loop gain;
A – open-loop gain;
xo = A( xs − β xo ) Aβ – loop gain;
If Aβ > 0 – negative feedback;
xo A (9.1) if Aβ < 0 – positive feedback.

The product of dc gain and the bandwidth of an amplifier is independent of the feedback. It
is an important parameter of the amplifier and is called gain-bandwidth product or unity
